Here are some reviews from people who have hired Arnold:

My bureau, Eagles Talent Connection, has had the opportunity to book Arnold for speaking engagements on multiple occasions. Arnold does an excellent job of listening to the client’s needs, tailoring his presentation and absolutely exceeding their expectations. I have received many spin-offs from his original appearances for our clients and these have resulted in additional bookings. He is a pleasure to work with and a great value. Thanks, Arnold!! Kristi Wilson, VP Eagles Talent Speakers Bureau

Arnold was a big hit this week! He was full of energy, had great stories, related well to our group, and was funny. The group walked away with specific ways to connect with our customers. Thanks for making both of us look good! Paula Kennedy, Manager Learning Development, Kaiser Permanente

Arnold – Thank you for yesterday! Our staff loved it and I’m anxious to turn the film into a promotional video to get the word out to our dealers and the state and metro associations. We’re excited to work with you and I know our dealers will benefit from your program.Thank you again for sharing it with us yesterday – it was a perfect kick off for our event and for the second half of our year! Marilynn Youngs, Senior Director, National Automobile Dealers Association

Great job Arnold! In addition to your terrific presentation, we really appreciated your exceptional efforts to get to know our audience. Your coming in early was a real stress reducer as well! We definitely look forward to working with you again. Elizabeth Bailey of 2b Communications was equally impressed and asked for your contact information to pass on to her clients. I heard nothing but compliments from our chapter leaders regarding your presentations in Phoenix and Atlanta. Well done! Joe Frack,CEO, Society of Financial Service Professionals

Arnold , Just wanted to say a quick thank you for presenting to our team on Tuesday night. Everyone was still talking about it the next morning. You did a fabulous job engaging everyone and keeping the presentation interesting and useful…. Not an easy task after a long work day, a full meal, and at 7:30 in the evening! I believe that you helped energize our team and reminded them about what is important, what is expected by customers, and how to make a stronger and more positive impression with our customers. We all had a fun time, and I enjoyed working with you. Thanks again. Amy Shannon, Meeting Coordinator, Lockheed Martin

Thank you so much for the days! It was a great workshop and I feel very beneficial not only for the Management Trainees, but also for me. I would definitely like to continue with this program in the future. I will keep in touch as we move forward with future groups. Kristi Paulson, Marketing Resource and Talent Development, Toyota

Arnold, thank YOU for two great presentations. Overall, the team was very pleased with the day. You were very well received by all. I will pass on my recommendations to the event planning team, and hopefully we can one day work together again. Doris Dunn, Director of Community Relations, Farmers Insurance – Chairperson, Chartered Property Casualty Underwriters of Southern California

Arnold, You were a great speaker and all the buzz has been very positive. Thanks for being so flexible on the schedule. I have forwarded your email to everyone in the company. If you ever need a reference, please don’t hesitate to use me. Scott Jones, Senior Vice President, Donaldson Property Management

Arnold, It was a pleasure meeting you. You were very entertaining and engaged all of our staff. You had so many key points that hit home for many. Billie Rasko, Laurel Auto Group

The feedback I’ve gotten from the retreat was that it was a success in every way. As you said yourself, you can prepare but then you have to be attentive to the room and the dynamic. We are a group of talkers, so I believe that the cards and materials were helpful, especially for some more than others, but it was the interactive dynamic that was important. Everybody agreed that we originally thought that the “Appreciation” exercise was a little hokey in theory, but yet it turned out to be the focal point of the program and we even continued it until nearly 4 PM the next day when we had hoped to adjourn at 3. So I really think that turning back to that and letting it run its course was the wise and effective thing and you did that very well. So we appreciate you! I know that the group liked getting your book and the deck of cards, and that it’s very handy to have these tools available when trying to come up with ways to motivate or just organize your group. I looked through them and agree that they are a rich source of great ideas and tactics for all of us to employ. Thanks so very much for being so prompt and well prepared, and for being an effective facilitator for the group. Katherine Krents, Administrative Director, Cleary Gottlieb Steen and Hamilton, Law Firm

On behalf of the Board and Our Chapter, I'm writing to express our gratitude for a great entertaining presentation! You rocked the audience with humor and great insights into how to get along with each other. I can tell from the audience that you were a huge hit. In fact a passerby (not a member) poked his head in to listen to a few minutes of your presentation and asked me who you were and took some of your handouts before leaving. Our members clearly were excited, and our Board couldn't be happier to see so many smiles at the end of a long day. I look forward to working with you again on a future speaking opportunity! Scott Chen, PhD MBA PMP PMI-MC VP Education

My organization, the Institute for Excellence in Sales, hired Arnold to keynote our January sales excellence workshop. He NAILED it. Our audience of sales leaders and experts were blown away by his message, his content, energy, and humor. He had everyone thinking differently about how they related to their prospects and customers by the end of the program. It was a great decision to have Arnold speak at this program. Fred Diamond, President, Institute for Excellence in Sales

Arnold, Thanks again so much for your brilliant discussion yesterday. I think we all took away quite a few things to think about. I am hopeful that your tips and guidance will help us today as we continue our planning session. Please do add me to your email distribution list. I look forward to receiving those tips! Ellen Gordon, Director of Finance and Administration, Armenian Assembly of America

The comments were very positive as you reinforced listening and communication skills in a good interactive session. Many were pleased and I thank you so much! Nada Abilmona, Project Coordinator, Training Division FBI Academy

I can speak confidently for our entire group in saying that your delivery, pace, content, style, and especially the on-target videos and examples were just what we needed to accomplish our goal. When I saw you greeting attendees at the door on the first day, I knew we had hit a homerun in selecting you as our trainer. Thank you for the books and the post-training cards and materials. I will definitely pass along your name to VDOT-wide trainers and training stakeholders. Karl Reedy, District Administrator, Virginia Department of Transportation.

You were fabulous!! The word on the street IS "Arnold Sanow" 'WHAT A SPEARKER!! So you were very well received and comments really said how amazing, humorous and educational your presentation was. Of course I am a great champion of yours so will keep my ears open for anything that comes up. I will speak to Karen Roubik, she's our internal training coordinator and she puts on multiple trainings a year. Tina Ciambruschini, Admin, Fairfax County Health Department

You rocked it! The feedback is overwhelmingly positive. I look forward to working with you again. I'm so glad that it all worked out - perfectly! Thank you!!!!! Kathy R. Lubitz, Leadership & Org. Development Sr. Manager, Arctic Slope Regional Corporation

I just heard back from Billie at Laurel Auto Group. They absolutely love your presentation – and time spent with you! She is confident the managers will use your material going forward, and felt they were all engaged in the morning. Thank you SO much for ALL you did for them. Wendy Hindler, Key Speakers Bureau

Arnold scored high marks. He was here for his 3rd visit. His topic this month was presenting with confidence and he tailored it so that Team Members were speaking about the company. It was a small session, but participants seemed to get a lot out of it. Highly recommend him. Karen Roberts, HR Director, Forrester Construction

"Arnold , Thank you so much! The team has incorporated your advice into their intros & presentations; we all learned a lot… it was a very productive day! THANK YOU! You absolutely won over the management team and the staff. Equally important - - your emails and advice are being shared throughout the organization. Can't wait for you to come back."Julia Clark Day, VP of Marketing, Leisure Trends, Inc.

Thank you! I received only positive feedback regarding “Get Along Better with Anyone, Anytime, Anywhere…” Everyone loved it! I will absolutely keep you in mind for future professional development/employee engagement events. Thanks again. Krista R.Haithcox, HR Specialist ,VMT Long Term Care Management

I will definitely keep you in mind for future sessions and will also give your information to our senior leadership team – they really need your training! Thanks! Ericka Johnson, Director USAID

Thank you for your email and the pleasure was all ours! Always fun to listen to you - you always bring a humble but knowledgeable attitude to training this class and by keeping it flowing and changing topics, you keep it fresh and entertaining. As a (part-time) presenter and facilitator when needed, I know that's not easy! Appreciate you sharing the link to your book. I will send that out to everyone. And of course, we will keep you in mind for future training. Rommel Momen, Marketing Talent Development Manager, Lexus/Toyota

Thanks for the support. It was great to have the brainstorming session with the supervisors. I think we came up with some great ideas to implement. The team had many positive things to say about the training. I appreciate all your help. Michael Zimmerman, Customer Center Operations Manager, Lexus Corporate Headquarters

Your presentation today was absolutely what our team needed and wanted to experience. I've heard nothing but positive comments. Thank you so much for a wonderful day! Thanks again and I'm in hopes that we'll see and hear more from you.Judy Glassie – Meeting Planner – Grady Management Company

Arnold, I have to tell you that it is rare for staff to seek me out and thank me for sending them to training, even when they requested it. But after last weeks classes, numerous folks have gone out of their way to tell me how much they enjoyed your training sessions and then actually thanked me for setting it up. So I wanted to pass those 'thanks' on to you. You made it easy for our folks to feel comfortable about getting up and making a presentation in front of their co-workers. This will not only help them in the professional careers, but it also helped their self- confidence, and they realize it. I thought you would enjoy knowing that your influence on this office will continue. Rick Kropp, Director, United States Geological Survey

You, of course, knocked their socks off in La Costa with a 9.3 rating. I see the dilemma forming already about breaking tradition and bringing you back for a third year at the Annual meeting! Beth Hardy, Conference planner, International Foundation of Employee Benefit Plans

What a quality presentation! You couldn’t have done better for us if you had planned years ahead. The quality, attention to detail and preparation were right on the money! Ron Davis, CSP, Chairman of Security Associates

Your presentation was perfect, and right on the money!! Thanks for working with us. Maybe we will have a chance to work together again. Linda Strickland, AgCarolina, Farm Credit

Thanks for a great job! You were on the mark and your efforts to tie your subject to our business enabled our people to get more out of the presentation. The response from the group was an overwhelming “yes” to your program. Let’s discuss on-going sessions. Ira Barkoe, Executive Vice President, COMSTOR

Arnold was great. We have had very positive feedback from everyone. He made some very important points in a relaxed and humorous way…I think people were listening more than if he Arnold had done what he calls “death by PowerPoint.” And he avoided any “group hugs”. Seriously, Arnold’s presentation was really very well done. We are considering some additional meetings for our 13-14 managers and supervisors in OPACE in late January or February and want Arnold back. Robert Tynan, Deputy Administrator, Office of Public Affairs, U.S. Department of Agriculture

This is just a quick note to thank you for another great presentation. All of the feedback we have received was very positive. While our program is in the business of communicating, it doesn’t necessarily mean we are perfect at it ourselves. You gave us a nice foundation for us to work from in building a more effective group of managers and supervisors. There was a lot of very helpful information that was presented in a way that people engaged in and got a lot out of. Everyone was pretty energized by what you said and how you said it. Robert Tynan, Deputy Administrator, Office of Public Affairs, U.S. Department of Agriculture

As often as I told you I wanted FUN...I have to tell you over and over that you were terrific. I was still high on watching you PERFORM...and how it all worked out. I haven't talked with Lisa yet, but intend to tomorrow and I will certainly get you in to speak with my other Director. Many thanks for being such a pleasure to work with, we were a great Team! Kathy Lightbody, Coordinator, National Institutes of Health ---------- Follow up session ----- I've just been reading some of the feedback...you were dynamite again! Everything was positive, everybody learned, and they were all energized. Everyone liked FISH, everyone liked the fact that they got to specifics. GREAT JOB! THANKS! Kathy Lightbody, Coordinator, National Institutes of Health ---- Same program another division ----- You passed another challenge with flying colors. I thought you were terrific, with your fast pace and entertaining lecture. The "prisoners" quickly moved to engaged participants and had fun in doing so. Many thanks for keeping it fun, my reputation really was on line this time. Kathy Lightbody, NIH --Once again, this workshop exceeded our expectations...I do believe everyone was engaged and had FUN!! You did a GREAT job and have a real gift to translate our words and those of our staff into a meaningful workshop that achieves our goal ..time and time again!

The program was perfect and Arnold was terrific with lots of humor with relevant and effective examples. Overall A+ -- Lorelei Long, Human Resources Manager, Mayer, Brown, Rowe and Maw Law Firm
